REUNION.

Soft fell the quiet evenings grateful gloom,
Tho old clock licked its warning clear and SLOW
And strangely with the frellght's ftful glow
The moonlight mingled in the Silent room
All silent save the far OF %murmuring boom
OF soas TINT autumn urged TO lighter flow,
And from the serc brown stubble fields below
The Crickets shrilly piping summers doom.
We sat md spoke not, friends whom chance had
brought
Together from the city's toll and roar,
Companions OF bright days by sen md field;
Yet in that brief hour OF unuttered thought
We felt, l knew, OF truest friendship more
Than all the merry summer had revealed.

A Market street JeweIer Asks for Fish and
Is Accommodated.
II is well known that several fish of va
rious sizes and conditions have been taken
out of the water pipe at Stifel's print
works recently, and shortly after the last
one was found a we'll known Market
street iewclcr, not far below Alley 9, went
up to the Office and in n joking way asked
Mr.. Stilcl if he couldn't purchase some
fish. lie was asked what size and kind
he wanted and answered that he wanted
Cat fish of any size.
Yesterday the threequarter inch pipe
ut the works was found stopped up again
and upon taking off the stOp-cock Cat
fish eight inches long came out. The
head and tail were in good condition, but
the central portion OF the body was pretty
well crushed. The fish was neatly boxed
and sent by dray to the aforementioned
ieweler who paid the quarter charges,
opened the box and iound that he had
gotten what he had asked fora Cat fish.
Probably he will go TO fish mOngers next
time.

WHEELING LOSES HER FIRST CHAMPION
SHIP GAME YESTERDAY.
Bsiug Defeated By the Columbus Team After
Having the Game in Our Own Hands-Bsttsr
Things Promised for To-day.

After seven successive victories, and
with yesterdays game well in hand,
Wheeling met with her first defeat of the
championship season at the hands OF the
Columbus club yesterday afternoon. When
Columbus went to the bat in their half OF
the ninth inning the score stood to 5
against them, and the spectators were
leaving their seats, satisfied that Wheeling
bad added one more victory TO her credit in
the race, but fate willed it otherwise, as the
boys from Ohio got several hits and, aided
by three costly errors on the part OF the
home team, scored five times, or enough to
win the game with only one man out.
Mallory was way of, and, although he
received excellent support in the field, al
lowed the visitors to bat him to the tune
of seventeen base hits, with a total of
twenty-one, three of their runs being
earned.
The Green Stockings outfielded their
opponents, but they did not bat mp to their
usual standard, and it was i'll this respect
that they were outplayed. The Columbus
really won the game twice, as with three
men on bases and two out in the seventh,
Schwartz drove the ball over Crogan' s
head for three bases, bringing in three
earned runs. He carelessly ran outside
the FIST base line, however, and OBrlen
declared him ont, and, as tins time
he was put out before reaching first,
none of the runs counted. ms
was hard luck and ShwaTtZ objected to the
decision, declaring that he had run inside
the line. O'Brien was firm, however, and
it looked as if the game was going to end
there, but the Blue Stockings finally con-
cluded to play the game out, although
Capt. Morrison very fOOlishly declared ne
would protest the game should Wheeling
win. That this was nonsense, was evident
to everybody, and there were good many,
who saw that Schwartz ran fully two feet
beyond the line. Still the Columbus team,
As a whole, took the decision very good
naturally and great many spectators,
although, of course, sorry to see Wheeling
lose the game, felt that they thoroughly
deserved their victory and were not slow to
say 80.
The visitors all agreed, after the heat OF
the contest, that O'Brien umpired n good,
square game of ball, and they seemed well
satisfied that his decisions were perfectly
impartial, Steubenville to the contrary
Notwithstanding.
Elf was not in good form yesterday,
and none of the boys, with one or two eX-
ceptions, played their usual sharp game
Itshould be said, however, that several OF
them are badly bruised and wrenched,
which made stealing bases an impoSsi-
bility. Smith, the new pitcher, will be
given trial in the box to-day and Bailey
will back him up. Smith is good one,
and we look forward to better things in
this afternoons game.
The full score yesterday is rs follows:
